In a move I didn’t see coming, but always hoped would happen, Altaria will get to mega evolve and be a worthy asset to the team. I am, of course, talking about the latest screenshots from the pages of Coro Coro magazine, showing off some of the newest mega evolutions coming to Pokémon Omega Ruby & Alpha Sapphire later this year.

In addition to Altaria, the screens reveal that Salamence and Lopunny will also be receiving new forms as well. I, for one, think Mega Lopunny is a substantial improvement, doing away with its previously unsubtle “sexy” design and going for something less discomforting. On the other hand, Mega Salamence looks just plane silly. Get it? PLANE? Because he looks like a plane.

Regardless, I’m sure many fans will be happy with the newest additions to the ever-growing mega roster. We’ll have to wait and see everything that the games will bring when Pokémon Omega Ruby & Alpha Sapphire is released almost worldwide for Nintendo 3DS on November 21st. The European release will follow shortly after on the 28th. Nevertheless, we’ll be updating you with any and all information on the games as it surfaces in the coming months.
